d pure and holy. Compared to him, covered in blood, Yun An'an was like a fairy from heaven.To escape capture, he leaped onto the carriage. Perhaps it was a stroke of fate, but the girl on the carriage...: []

Please provide me with the text you would like me to translate. I'm ready!

Having lifted his bowl of noodles and about to leave, Apu stopped in his tracks, staring at Yun An'an with an expression of disbelief.

That expression seemed to say, "Are you talking to me"

Until he was sure that what he heard wasn't an illusion, but a real question, Ap nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, I am Li Cun from Xi Ling Guo. This time, I went to Fenghuang Xian Island by boat to earn money for my mother's illness. Thankfully, you came to my rescue. Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have died long ago."

Apu talked to himself for a while, Yun An'an frowned slightly, feeling annoyed by his talkativeness.

Ap also realized that his words had upset her, so he scratched his head and smiled awkwardly to cover up the embarrassment.

"Please rest, young lady. If you need anything, just let me know."

After I disembark, I'll pay you a thousand ounces of gold to be my horse driver.

"Huh"

A nonsensical phrase filled Ap's mind with questions. Although he knew the meaning of each word, when put together, he couldn't figure out what the sentence meant.

Is she going to hire me as her groom with a thousand ounces of gold

Should this be the meaning

Apu wanted to ask for clarification, but the words died in his throat.

Why not ask again in a few days

……

The days at sea have finally come to an end.

With both feet firmly planted on the ground, a sense of steadiness washes over me.

Apu received his wages from the ship captain and gave a portion to his master as a sign of respect.

"Thank you, Master, for taking me out to sea. Consider this money as a gift for you to buy some wine."

It's not a large sum, but it's given with sincerity.

The old boatman tugged at Apu's clothes and pointed to Yun An an standing not far away.

"Kid, you're courting death! You dare get close to someone like that Don't you fear for your life"

It's better to be alive and well than to be rich. That kind of woman is not someone you want to mess with, she's a force to be reckoned with.

"Master, rest assured. Although Yun Girl may seem difficult to get along with, she is not a bad person."

Otherwise, it can't be solved. The pirates rescued a boatload of people.

Ap absolutely believes Yun An'an is a good person, she just seems a bit cold.

Actually, the only reason Yun'an took action that day was not to save people, but because the pirates' talking was disturbing her rest.

That's all.

"Okay, be careful."

The old boatman still wasn't at ease and kept reminding Ap to be careful.

App tucked the money pouch into his bosom, hired a carriage, and, disguised as the coachman, drove Yun An'an away from the port.

"Yun girl, where are we going"

He still doesn't know the purpose of this trip.

"The capital of Beichen."

"Huh To Bei Chen Nation"

Ah Pu opened his eyes in astonishment.

"The journey to the capital of Beichen is extremely long. Of the Seven Nations, four have already become vassal states of Beichen. If you want to reach the capital of Beichen, you will have to cross several countries at least..."

Ah Pu chattered incessantly, talking about the time and distance it would take to get to Beichen Kyoto.

"One more word, and you're dead."

Yun'an threatened Ap so successfully that he shut his mouth.

After a long while, Apu finally cautiously spoke up.

"Yun Girl, before I go to Beichen Capital... can I go back to Li Village to see my mother first"

"Uh-huh."

Simply an "mmm," Yun Anan ignored Apu and lay on her side on the fur pad, falling asleep.

Shang Li Village, a small village on the border of Xiling Country.

The small village had only a hundred or so households, and every family relied on hunting for a living.

After half a year away, Ap finally returned home.

The carriage stopped before the farmer's house, and Ap jumped down, pushing open the gate to the courtyard.

Hearing a sound outside the door, the elderly woman who was putting on her shoe stopped and went to see what it was. Tears immediately welled up in her eyes.

"My son, is that you"

"Mother, it's me, I'm back."

The mother and son, overcome with joy, wept as they shared their longing for each other.

Because of Apu's return, Apu's mother cooked a big table of good wine and delicious food to entertain the neighbors.

The entire courtyard was packed with villagers from Shangli Village. One by one, they were filled with joy, celebrating Apu's safe return and the fact that they had found a wife for him.

Niece-in-law

Under the scrutiny of countless eyes, Yun An'an, seated at the head of the table, frowned slightly. Even though she was accustomed to storms and waves, being watched like a monkey was still somewhat uncomfortable.

Not only was Yun Annan uncomfortable, but also the villagers who came to Ap's house for drinks.

They were delighted to hear that Apu was back.

Apu's father died early, they watched Apu grow up. Now that he has made money and returned home, it's a good thing. Bringing his wife back is also a good thing.

However, this daughter-in-law looks very different from normal people.

First of all, don't mention the long red hair. Just saying that there are white gauze covering her eyes, is she blind

I heard that there are people of another race living on the other side of the sea, red-haired ones. Could Ap's wife be from another race

"It's possible, there are rumors that people from other tribes are very beautiful. Even with her eyes covered, this girl is truly lovely, hundreds of times prettier than our village flower."

Whether she's from Xiling or a different tribe, the woman who gives birth to Ap's child is a good woman.

"That's right, that's right, he brought the bride home, it seems our village is going to have another wedding."

"What are you guys talking about, Apu would never marry someone like that."

As the saying goes, there is joy in some homes and sorrow in others, which aptly describes Xia, the village flower of Shangli Village.

Xiao Xia, with her round and smooth features, is the epitome of beauty in men's eyes. She is not only capable and hardworking but also a skilled cook. At first glance, one can tell she is healthy and well-nourished.

Men from ten miles and eight villages all stepped over Xia's doorstep to propose marriage, but Xia only had Apu in her heart.

Even though Apu left Shang Li Village, she still believed that Apu would come back to marry her.

But Xiaoxia didn't expect that when Apu came back, he brought another woman from a different race.

Where is she better than her She has red hair, wears a white dress, and looks frail. She's nowhere near as good.

No, she wants to ask for clarification.

"Hello, Ah-Pu."

Xiaoxa, with reddened eyes, pointed at Yun An'an.

Who is she

Seeing Xiao Xia's bad tone and pointing at Yun An'an, Apu hurried forward and grabbed Xiao Xia's hand.

"No, never disrespect Miss Yun."

"Cloud Maiden You're calling me so familiarly, do you think I am what I waited for you for so long, and in the end, you want to marry her as your daughter-in-law."

Xiaoxia saw Ap protect the red-haired woman so much, tears welled up in her eyes and fell one after another. She cried with such grievance.

Yunan sat at the head of the table. When Xiaoxiao said this, her eyes slightly raised.

No wonder she's been hostile towards herself since she walked in; it seems she mistook her for a rival.

The noodles are pretty good.

After finishing a bowl of noodles, Yun Anan praised Apu's mother for making a good oil noodle soup.

"I'll be waiting for you at the entrance of Shangli Village before sunset."

With a final statement, Yun Anan rose and walked away from the fence in front of hundreds of people. She didn't care about the questions in their eyes, disappearing at the end of the dirt road.

The country road was filled with the earthy freshness unique to it. Walking among the fields, the wind-blown wheat stalks swayed gently, and a comforting sight of lush greenery greeted the eyes.

With hands clasped behind their back, breathing in the fresh air and bathed in golden sunlight, suddenly, a wave of icy pain shot from the heart, traveling throughout their body.

White frost was spreading visibly at a rapid pace. It was the height of summer, with the sun blazing fiercely, yet An'an found herself surrounded by an icy chill that felt oppressively close.

"Hmm~"

He let out a cold snort, the icy breath condensing into frost.

Stiff fingers pulled out a pill and sent it into his mouth. When the effect took hold, the frost that had been creeping along his brow finally began to melt away.

Five years ago, two bullets nearly took her life and the child she carried.

To survive, she could only rely on the juice of the spurge, but the poison had already seeped into her bones.

To detoxify, one must use the seeds of the light and airy cloud mist flower, the Tianzhu fruit, and the root of the Xianyunzhi flower as medicine. But even then, every time Phoenix Flower's poison side effects struck, her whole body would be covered in frost, like being trapped in an ice hell.

This is the price she pays to stay alive.

He was constantly reminding her that everything she had was thanks to Bei Chen Yi.

She said, if she were alive.

I will definitely return to Beichen Kingdom and take everything from Beichen Yi. I will kill him with my own hands.

But before that, she wanted to make Beichen Yi suffer a thousandfold.

Not until all the frost had dissipated did Yun AnAn return from the ice hell to the human world.

At this time, a group of horsemen galloped past.

The general, riding at the front, turned his head inadvertently and glanced at the red-haired woman in white standing by the field. He had a feeling he'd seen her somewhere before.

"Coach, what are you looking at"

"Like I've seen a ghost."

The man scoffed, "Seeing ghosts in broad daylight How rare is that"

However, Shang Li Cun'er is located on the border of Xi Ling Guo. There are many wronged souls there, and it's quite possible that they are solitary ghosts wandering the fields.

But the red-haired ghost looked exactly like Yun An'an. It was probably just a hallucination caused by his exhaustion from rushing here all night.

"General, the tribute that Xiling Nation offered to Beichen Nation this time has been intercepted by the Demon Sect. Shall we send troops to besiege them"

It is reported that a batch of tribute to be presented to the Beichen Kingdom was intercepted by Mo Chenjun. Not only that, but he also killed their soldiers from Xiling Country. If this is not punished, the Demon Sect might become even more rampant.

"Let's put aside matters concerning Mo Chenjun for now. This general is personally escorting the tribute to Beichen Kingdom, so there must be no delays."

Since the battle on the northwestern border of Beichen five years ago, Dongqin, Nanjing, Xiling, and Mobei, under constant internal and external threats, have all submitted and become vassal states of the powerful Beichen Empire.

Now, with only the Wu Kingdom and Xue Kingdom stubbornly resisting, the Beichen Kingdom's momentum to unify the world is unstoppable.

On the other side, Apu reluctantly bid farewell to his family. As he left, he left all his money to Apu's mother and drove his carriage to the entrance of Shang Lici Village.

"Yun girl, let's set off."

Although the situation in the world is gradually calming down, the journey to Beichen Kingdom will be fraught with danger. Are you truly sure about this, Yun girl

Ap asked Yun'an if she really wanted to set off for Beichen Country. Once they started their journey, the road ahead would be fraught with danger.

As for this, Yun An'an, who was lying on her side in the carriage, slightly lifted her fingertips. Apu understood and waved his whip in his hand, driving the carriage away.ave to do with it…"Yun Qian Shan's expression was stiff, even more frightening than a corpse.If time could go back, he would definitely not look for Yun An'an, definitely not!But there are no ifs in t...
